Very Pretty! I love the black squares in there, also.

Aren't string quilts the most fun to sew? Yours dances!!

sniktasemaj 05-07-2012 03:42 AM

That is really pretty. I am wondering about starting one by just doing a block or two after I make a quilt using the fabric from that quilt, then when I get enough, I'll sew them all together.

Would love to know how you made that black square on point border--am pretty new to quilting. The quilt is beautiful!

great looking scrappy and I too like the black squares, makes the quilt stand out more and adds just the right amount of pop.

Beautiful. I especially love the border.

wendiq 05-07-2012 06:59 AM

I've made some and seen a lot....of these string quilts....but I think your's is the nicest I've seen.....the black tiny squares really sets it off.....not only as cornerstones, but that border....Oh My! It is perfect.....lots of work, but so well done.....:)

CarrieC 05-07-2012 07:14 AM

That is lovely - and I love the way you used the black squares/diamonds to sort of tie it all together.

tildiemae 05-07-2012 07:46 AM

What a pretty quilt. I think scrappies are my favorites!

Jingle 05-07-2012 07:54 AM

Totally agree - it is really, really nice with the black accents:)

Now that is one of the prettiest scrappy quilts with this pattern that I have seen. Your border is just the right amount of structure for this quilt. A very lovely quilt!

matraina 05-07-2012 10:26 AM

Wow, absolutely beautiful!

burchquilts 05-07-2012 10:49 AM

That is just beautiful! I remember it from the scrap thread. Now you need to also post it on the "string quilt" thread. I'm serious... show this beauty off every chance you get! I love it!

Grandma Peg 05-07-2012 10:51 AM

Gorgeous! I hope I get one made this year!

krysti 05-07-2012 05:21 PM

I don't think I've seen a scrappy I didn't like. They are becoming some of my favorites to look at. Yours is absolutely beautiful. They look extremely difficult to do--is that the case?

gigi4419 05-07-2012 05:22 PM

Very pretty!

tezell0801 05-07-2012 05:33 PM

No, they aren't difficult...just attached the strips to squares of muslin. The border was a bit time consuming, though!

I just have to try my hand on one of these. LOVE IT!!
